Communism is when a bunch of bad shit is always happening everywhere for no fucking reason at all.
Ask somebody who survived communism, like Mikhail Akhmeteli or Anastasy Andreyevich Vonsyatsky. They can back me up on that.
the implementations of communism that have existed are:
mostly not super communist. a one-party dicatatorship owning all the property and being like "well but we, the party, are the people so... it's communist!" is. not. communism.
nowhere near to an exhaustive set of ways to do communism
I mean… you are technically correct, but your reply suggests to me that your understanding of history is inadequate, implying that the people’s republics were all undemocratic ‘one-party dictatorship[s] owning all the property’ (???) and using exceedingly vague colloquialisms like ‘implementations of communism’ and ‘ways to do communism’ (haha).
Can I offer you a few resources on the subject?
